Thanks for the heads-up, Colin.
Though the interview is no
longer available on the BBC
site, it’s now on youtube.
Enjoyed it.

yeh, for me the problem is it ends up in
a general discussion of ’what music
means to me’ and gets a bit
metaphysical. The most interesting bits
are when he talks about specific music,
specific people, but not enough of that.
Anyway, stop moaning, great to hear the
man on the radio and I love Moira’s
voice.

ZMan, it’s from Joni Mitchell’s Shadows and Light, a live album from the Mingus tour of ’79. The track has a unique name: "Pat’s Solo." ;)

Where is the music from that’s played around the 46 minute mark?

Hi Yossarian, I thought it was a slightly strange programme.
It jumped about timewise and the trouble is with all his interviews is that there is so much you want to ask but the time constraint is always an issue.
Usual stuff on Orchestrion - grandfather’s basement etc. but in general he seemed to enjoy the conversation and I managed to follow what he was talking about which isn’t always the case!
Would be nice to think it reached a wider audience than it does when he’s stuck away at 1130 on Radio 3 and maybe the musical clips will encourage a few new followers.

jaco stories just after 30
minutes...

Well Yossarian when I PMG in July 1987 at the Hammersmith Odeon there was a 5 minute standing ovation at the end of First Circle - a moment to remember forever !

yossarianSep 05 2013at 4:09 PM

What did you think Colin? I enjoyed it
but wished Moira asked a few more
specific questions - I want to know how
it felt to hear the audience after they’d
just played First Circle the first time live.
I know what happened the first time I
heard it at Hammersmith in 1985(?).

Those that can get this, give it a listen. Will last a week since it was broadcast, Tuesday night, 03 Sept.

yeah just caught the end - sounds like
Moira has a good rapport with the man.
And on
